  • I lived a childhood dream of racing at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway as I entered the 2018 USAC Battle at the Brickyard in the Briggs and Stratton l206 Medium Class. This was my FIRST EVER real race. Join me on my journey as I learn how to race for real at the most famous race track on the planet!

    Great stuff David! I got chills at moments throughout the video! This was really a joy to watch. I am proud of you for going and living a dream you have had! You were wheeling that thing on the final lap! Heck of a job!

  • @RunningsRacing
    @RunningsRacing Před 6 lety +6

    David, I think that if anybody deserved a chance to race at Indy like this, It would be you. I will be looking forward to any other race you participate in and any of your other videos! I will be at the NASCAR races at Indy in September and I would love to meet you.

  • @smileygladhands
    @smileygladhands Před 6 lety +12

    You did really well for your first ever race. I've driven a go-kart that's similar to the kart you drove, and they are not easy at all to drive well and competitively. Awesome job my dude!

  • @ryanpickering733
    @ryanpickering733 Před 6 lety +5

    Great Coverage!! I had a very similar weekend to yours. I drove the 14T. I will post the link when I get my footage uploaded. Pretty much an advertisement for Red Bull. lol

  • @twitchynitch
    @twitchynitch Před 6 lety +1

    That was fantastic David. I think every fan of your channel & motorsports in general sat back and watched that in envy. & as you've said, you're part of an elite club who's first race EVER was at the Brickyard.
    Side note, found your channel about a month ago and have been binge watching ever since. Whether it be NH2, Project Cars, or the Red Pill, I've enjoyed it all. I'd say keep it up, but I already know you will.

    WOW

  • @atsp31
    @atsp31 Před 6 lety

    I race Briggs 206 in the ignite class and I was there at Indy. The key to getting out of the corner is to get on the gas as soon as can because the 206 engines bog especially with low gearing. In corners like the hairpin you have to get on the gas before you get off the brake to keep the rpm's up. I recommend going to Margay Racing's website for future races because they have an arrive and drive program where you can rent a kart and race in the ignite spec series which is hands down the most competitive and closest racing. Under the Margay tent there's a lot of very experienced people willing to help.

  • @travisoliver2288
    @travisoliver2288 Před 6 lety

    I raced at the 2016 Battle at the Brickyard in Quartermidgets. It's so cool. The QM cars are pretty similar, except they are coil-based suspension with a roll-cage for ovals. USAC puts on some kick-ass shows. Keep at it David!!
    Also, my former car owner was teching cars on the oval side of the event, and said it was stupid hot. Probably not the best first go at it.

    I've ran the half marathon at Indy twice! We enter the speedway at the entrance on Georgetown and enter the track in the back straight. I've been to the race 3 times, being on the track is very different, being on the track with 35 000 runners is something you can only experience. Looks like I have a new event to try to get into at the Brickyard!

    Man, David! I did a 125cc Racing Day at Michigan International Speedway in May. Bet it wasn't as fun as this though. I brought a cart my friend and his dad made and raced in a little kart track in the infield and then went on the raceway for a Junior 13 Under Race.

  • @MattChaffe
    @MattChaffe Před 6 lety

    So cool to see you get a chance to race in real life, especially after all these years I've watched you on CZcams. Congrats on your opportunity and I look forward to seeing you race next year if you get the chance!

    Man david im super jealous man. Sure ive jever my driven anything like you did in this video, i only went on like little ones at the fair and stuff. The slow ones. Man wish i wanted to race when i was young. 100% a dream. Haven't finished the video yet, but good job either way

  • @chevypower22350
    @chevypower22350 Před 6 lety

    My two best friends were in the 60 and 94 in your class. 60 was the one that gave you that monster push then ended up with a kart on top of him. Other than all the issues I'm glad you had a good time.
    If you ever get the chance, come out and race with us in the OVKA at G&J kartway. Hopefully we will see you again next year at the Battle.
